Study Notes
Perm Techniques and Definitions
- The spiral technique is best utilized on medium to long hair.
- Added texture creates the illusion of shorter hair lengths.
- Two primary wrapping techniques for perming are spiral and overlap.
Wrapping Techniques and Effects
- The overlap (croquignole) technique produces undulating waves and curls.
- Texture placement refers to positioning texture in specific areas of the head or along portions of the hair strand.
Design Principles in Perming
- Design principles of repetition, alternation, progression, and contrast can be applied along the hair strand and within texture zones.
- Perm patterns, or wrapping patterns, affect the final curl appearance and assist in organizing perm services.
Types and Effects of Perms
- Zonal perms are also known as partial perms and are used to emphasize or support specific areas, as well as create bold statements.
- Adding texture to the fringe boosts volume and height in hairstyles.
Purpose of Base and End Perming
- Base perming is used for creating lift and volume, especially for new hair growth to match previously permed texture.
- End perming enhances texture away from the base, resulting in contrasting textures.
Perm Patterns Overview
- Common perm patterns include rectangle, contour, bricklay, spiral bricklay, and zonal.
- The bricklay pattern is beneficial for avoiding splits in the curling process.
- A rectangle pattern is referred to as a 6-block pattern.
- In a contour pattern, rods are positioned diagonally forward, transitioning to horizontal as they progress.
